Mountain territory and Adriatic approaches define Montenegro in these Balkan maps, coastal charts and local scenes. Ottoman provincial mapping, eighteenth-century regional sheets by Rossi and Cantelli and later surveys link the country with Serbia, Bosnia and Albania, while charts around Kotor and Risan appear under older headings such as Cattaro and Dalmatia. Military maps of operations in the Tara and Lim valleys add a twentieth-century strand. The prints show towns, dress and scenes from nineteenth-century conflict, including the Montenegrin-Ottoman wars.
